Default Big Smallies, Nice Trout, Huge Perch

Hit one of the reservoirs Thursday. Got on the water at 7am and left at 2pm. Picked away at fish all day. The water temps were in the upper 50's and all fish were up high all day. Got a personal best 16-17 inch 2lb perch deep though. Smallies were hitting softly all day which was kind of annoying. Boated 5 smallies 2 trout and 1 perch (missed about 10 fish today). I have a question for you guys about hooks. What type of hook would you recommend when slow trolling herring for trout. We had several really really good run offs but couldnt get the hook in with the # 2 octopus we were using. pm with any advice or questions thanks
